Hello Rob,
It seems that if I mirror a product on the Block Schematic view the layer attributes of the mirrored item are undefined (although the Properties box gives the correct layer name when I unlock the product).
As an example, on a drawing where an item is dragged in and the text and box of that item are on the "Outline" layer and the pin is on the "Audio Circuit Paths" layer and the item itself is on the "Parts" layer, if I then <mirror> this product the resulting mirrored copy does not seem to respond to any layer viewing changes. It seems, even if I select to view no layers that the items stays there, like it was on an undefined layer.
This has led me to make "IN" pins and "OUT" pins instead of just one pin that I can mirror left and right. A slight drag unless there is a work-around.
I have tried this with Stardraw symbols also and the same issue seems to apply.
I am running: 7.1 Build 4/27/2016 4:35:36
Thoughts?
Regards,
Rick

Hi Rick,
Thanks for your post - this is on our radar and will be fixed in an imminent update.

Perfect! Thanks for letting me know. Thoughts on what "imminent" means? Ie, How many duplicate (but mirrored) pins do I make? 8)
Cheers,
Rick

Hi Rick,
Well, as you know we don't project launch dates - it'll be released when it's ready - but I will go as far as to say 'this month'. Hope that helps.

Ha! Fair enough. You guys are great, and I love using the program.
Cheers,
Rick
Ps. Do I get brownie points for that last bit?
